the slow bone barbeque

walking distance from the hotel anatole--big plus! amazing brisket and side dishes! great find...

the bone has some unique and original style q especially for dfw. you'll love it or hate it but you need to come find out which way you lean. my favorite of the 3 meats i tried was the brisket. several reviewers have mentioned it's fatty, a bit much for me but great flavor, bark and moistness. the ribs were a bit dry, not too bad. they let the dry rub shine through, that's one of the unique parts, i can't put my finger on it, southwest? different. the chicken was good, dark meat was moist but there's that flavor again, better on the chicken in my opinion. the sides show that originally again, the brussel sprouts and cauliflower casserole was my favorite. good crunch and taste. the sweet potato casserole was good also thou leaning to the sweet side. the people and service were terrific, really into their place. another cool note, a goodie bar with jalapeño & carrot relish, chimichurri sauce, bread & butter pickles etc. a big thumbs up for fresh cut lime by the drinks!

ordered the two meat platter for lunch: brisket and ribs with fried okra (dried shriveled up tasteless pellets) and an unusual cauliflower/brussels sprouts salad made like a potato salad (equally bone dry and tasteless). the sauce helped both a little, but barely.
but what about the meats: ribs were meaty with a hint of smoke, moist, and generally good. the brisket had a more pronounced smokey flavor, my moist-requested cut was indeed moist, and way better than the ribs. i'm in love.
this is a small place with a smaller parking lot, so carpool with your companions and when you are done eating get up and leave (not like the two business people next to me who hogged a four-top, pulled out spreadsheets and started working the whole time i ate. pigs).

the smoked turkey sandwich was very moist and tasty, and the brisket beans tasted fantastic! a great place for lunch!

this is hands-down some of the best bbq in dallas, especially for the prices. the brisket is great. the cheddar and jalapeño stuffed sausage is amazing! i also tried the beef ribs which were exceptional (those that eat beef ribs know how hard it is to find a good beef rib.) the jalapeño mac & cheese, buttered squash and horseradish mashed potatoes are all excellent choices. the staff and customer service are also above average. they are only open from 11am-3pm, and because of the limited parking in their lot, i recommend getting there as close to 11 as possible. also, the cover to noon and you will be standing in the long line out the door. don't let the parking deter you. there is a warehouse across the street and i see that a number of people park there where parking is plentiful and walk across the street.

i had the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw on top, plus sweet potato casserole, for lunch and it was all very good. the flavors were great. the service was friendly and there was plenty of seating inside. a great place to go for lunch, since they are only open from 11a-3p. had free parking in a small lot as well.

i was in dallas for the eric church concert & this place came up as being within walking distance from my hotel. let me just say i would fly back to dallas to eat here! i had the brisket, ribs, greens, brussels sprout cauliflower, & hush puppies & every bite was just as delicious & perfect from beginning to end! i've eaten at a lot of barbecue places around the country & slow bone is one of my top 5 favorites!

best brisket and fried chicken in dallas! friendly, efficient service but can get. yay during lunchtime rush. can't go wrong with slow bone for getting your bbq fix.

great barbeque with a little twist. fun joint like atmosphere as well. always a crowd for lunch so come early... or late as you prefer 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

best bbq brisket i have ever eaten. the rub is awesome. can cut the brisket with a fork. sauce is tangy and not too sweet. cauliflower brussels sprout casserole is to die for

really great bbq. i had chicken and brisket and both were delicious. good homemade mac n cheese plus delicious tomato cucumber salad. we had food from here at my office and everyone seemed to really like it. i would go there for sure.

could have been better. the food was tender and the bark on the q was good. you wait in line to place your order and go through a cafeteria line of sorts before you are seated. the place is nothing fancy by any standard. the owners don't invest in the facility, that is for certain. my main complaint was that ribs and brisket were very fat. i know they use a very long and slow process but it fails to render a large amount of the fat. i have not seen this much fat in bbq food in a long time. some people like the juicy, fat and tender q. if this is you, this is your place. unlike a lot of places, the sauces tend toward the sweet side. again, not a complaint per-se but an observation. if you like sweet sauces, this place is for you. i would probably not go back because of the fat and the fact that the price was a little steep for lunch although the portions are generous.

not impressed. very disappointed,small portions,on cafeteria divided tray, fried okra dry and cold, also sides were very small portions. i'm from dallas there are lots better places than this, macs on main or bakers rib on commerce. sad that visitors at the anatole think this is good texas bbq

excellent texas bbq. brisket moist.
veggies yummy & fresh.
i didn't really care for the bbq sauce but just my preference.

disgusting. two strikes your out! without a doubt the worst food and especially the chopped brisket i have ever tried to eat. left most on the plate as was nothing but a salty, greasy mess. greasy okra, slaw with mustard that was uneatible, horrible potato salad, bland nothing but boiled squash. out labor day outing was ruined! our first visit several weeks ago was bad and today was the worst. lesson learned!
